NAME         top

       sd_bus_add_object_manager - Add a D-Bus object manager for a
       D-Bus object sub-tree

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_add_object_manager(sd_bus *bus, sd_bus_slot **slot,
                                     const char *path);

DESCRIPTION         top

       sd_bus_add_object_manager() installs a handler for the given path
       that implements the GetManagedObjects() method of the
       org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager interface. See
       org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager[1] for more information.

       To implement the InterfacesAdded and InterfacesRemoved signals of
       the org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager interface, call
       sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added(3) and
       sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed(3) whenever interfaces are added
       or removed from the sub-tree, respectively.

       When sd_bus_add_object_manager() succeeds, a slot is created
       internally. If the output parameter slot is NULL, a "floating"
       slot object is created, see sd_bus_slot_set_floating(3).
       Otherwise, a pointer to the slot object is returned. In that
       case, the reference to the slot object should be dropped when the
       object manager is not needed anymore, see sd_bus_slot_unref(3).

RETURN VALUE         top

       On success, sd_bus_add_object_manager() returns a non-negative
       integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error
       code.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -EINVAL
           One of the required parameters is NULL or path is not a valid
           object path.

       -ENOPKG
           The bus cannot be resolved.

       -ECHILD
           The bus was created in a different process, library or module
           instance.

       -ENOMEM
           Memory allocation failed.

NOTES         top

       Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
       can be compiled against and linked to with the
       libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.

       The code described here uses getenv(3), which is declared to be
       not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the
       functions described here must not call setenv(3) from a parallel
       thread. It is recommended to only do calls to setenv() from an
       early phase of the program when no other threads have been
       started.

HISTORY         top

       sd_bus_add_object_manager() was added in version 221.
